Default Pre-order Karen's book!

Amazon has finally got a listing for Karen's low carb cookbook, with a button to pre-order it. They're even selling it for 32% off! I think it would be really cool if she could hit a bestseller list on the first day it's available, from our pre-orders.

It is 320 pages long and is described as "The first sophisticated low-carb cookbook on the market...." The editorial review is very kind. "Anyone who is currently on-or contemplating embarking upon-one of the many low-carb diets will find The Low-Carb Gourmet to be a goldmine of recipes, tips, and inspiration."

And ...

If you're in Canada ... go to amazon.ca and check this page .. currently 30% off the cover price

or

chapters.indigo.ca ... check here ... they don't specify a member discount since it's a pre-order, but their current policy is 30% off all books over $25.

Both sites indicate that pre-odering the book qualifies for free shipping in Canada for orders totalling $39 or more.

Good point, Doreen. In the US it's free shipping over $25. If you add on any object over $1.20 you're getting free shipping. Also, in some states, you won't pay tax, so you'll get it for even less than at your local bookstore.

Oh -- in case anyone is wondering, amazon doesn't charge you till they send the merchandise.
